Default Knight Long Range Hunter arrived

The 50 cal. Knight LRH arrived today. I am planning on mounting one of the Nikon Omega scopes off another gun onto it tomorrow. Hopefully the hardware store will have some bases to fit. After i get the scope on it I was planning on trying the following loads.
120 gr 2f triple 7 and 250 gr shockwaves
100 gr 3f triple 7 and 250 and 300 gr shockwaves and 300 gr Scorpion PT Golds
120 Blackhorn209 and 300 gr Scorpions. Hopefully it will like one of these loads.
If anyone has any suggestion for loads in this gun I'm always open to trying stuff out. If you have a Long Range Hunter in 50 cal. what does yours like???
thanks for any advice

The stock looks just like my Ultra Slug from H&R with the multiple color swirls....
I would bet same factory make both stocks.
Nice looking gun.
